Fear(s) of the Dark

Plot Summary

"An international cast of graphic artists gives life to dread, fright, panic, terror and just plain high anxiety. But these spine-tingling delights, rendered in bare-bones black-and-white, aren't simply about things that go bump in the night. Rather, the six interwoven tales – by Blutch (aka Christian Hincker), Charles Burns, Pierre di Sciullo, Marie Caillou, Lorenzo Mattotti, and Richard McGuire – offer a distinct whiff of how varied horror can be" – Nicole Rudick, ARTFORUM.COM. "A sophisticated showcase of contemporary animation. The best short, by Mr. Burns, is a science-fiction nightmare of erotic slavery, with elements of ALIEN and Kafka's Metamorphosis." – Holden, NY TIMES. From IFC Films.
